Resident Evil 2 (remake)

Capcom

  • Over 20 years ago, an iconic PlayStation game launched: "Resident Evil 2."
  • In late January, that game is getting a majorly updated re-release for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
  • Besides looking significantly better, the remastered game is also updating the control system to feel more modern.


Over 20 years ago, in 1998, a blockbuster debut game on the PlayStation turned into a blockbuster franchise with the launch of "Resident Evil 2." 

Unlike the first game in Capcom's horror franchise, "Resident Evil 2" took players out of the confines of a nightmare-ridden mansion and into the chaotic streets of Raccoon City. It introduced major new players in the franchise - both Leon S. Kennedy and Ada Wong - in addition to expanding the concept of what a horror game could be. 

And now, in 2019, "Resident Evil 2" is getting gorgeously remastered for modern consoles.
